8 days of happy - day 5

Dec 19, 2010 01:38

Today yesterday at this point, was another one of those days that I would have liked to have told to GTFO! But, even as I lay here, after 1am, completely unable to sleep due in no small part to the perpetual ache in my lower back, I can still think of a couple of happy things.

I got to sleep in. Like SERIOUSLY sleep in. Not this 7 or 8 am bullshit.

I got breakfast in bed. Pancakes that I promptly ate & then fell back to sleep. And French pressed coffee that I reheated & drank later. It was so stout & thick, it was almost Turkish!

Of the not happy & what pretty much ruined the rest of the day & potentially the next few, I threw my back out trying to help Chris lift a 55 gallon oak barrel up onto a 4 foot stand. As I came in from the garage & tried to lie down on the floor, Chris explained to Jonah that he needed to be careful around me because I was really hurt. Jonah then came over to comfort me and gave me a couple of pats & a kiss on the cheek & told me it would be okay. He later felt my forehead & diagnosed, "you feel hot on your brain... forehead". It was all very sweet, even in the throes of crippling pain.

Also had my favorite lunch: grilled cheese & tomato soup.
